Depletion of resources:
The process of extracting
Geothermal fluids including
Gases steam and water
More about power plants:
All geothermal power plants use steam to turn large turbines, which run electrical generators. In the Geysers Geothermal area, dry steam from below ground is used directly in the steam turbines. In other areas of the state, super-hot water is "flashed" into steam within the power plant, and that steam turns the turbine.
